REMEMBER, remember... that Chelmsley Wood Town Council's annual fireworks display is almost upon us.
The event will take place at the Berwicks Lane playing fields on Saturday (November 7).
Gates open at 6pm, with the display starting at 7pm.
And remember if you're planning to celebrate Guy Fawkes Night at home, you should always follow the fireworks code.
Martyn Scott, from West Midlands Ambulance Service, warned that dangerous behaviour can lead to life-changing injuries. Last year, paramedics were called to a number of incidents around the region.
"In most cases we know that they could have so easily been avoided by simply using common sense," said Mr Scott.
"It appears that people don’t realise they are holding an explosive device in their hands when they light a firework; it is always alarming when people are surprised that they get injured."
